Former governor of Oyo State, Chief Adebayo Alao-
Akala says he will contest the 2015 governorship
election in the state and win.
Alao-Akala said this, weekend, while addressing
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) supporters, who
visited his Amazing Grace Villa residence, Bodija Estate,
Ibadan.
He allayed the fears of his supporters over rumours
that the party would pick a sole aspirant at the
weekend.
“Let me state categorically that nobody can scare or
intimidate us because we know our worth. I am not an
Abuja politician, I am a grassroots operator. I know
everybody by their name and calling in the party,” Akala
said.
He said his experience spans over years of holding
several leadership positions. “I have been a local
government chairman, deputy governor and governor in
this state, so Alao-Akala knows his worth.”
“No tension, do not panic, by the special grace of God,
he has given us the next government in Oyo State.
Though the path to that land seems rough, God himself
will clear and show us the road to the promise land,” he
prayed, adding that “before the end of the week, we’ll
know the next line of action.”
He also assured his supporters that he remained a
member of the PDP, although there are offers from
some opposition parties.
“Yes, it’s true that some leaders of the opposition
parties have been dangling offers before us, but I want
to state here that none of them have been accepted,” he
said.
